Checking tire pressure
Hi all,
This is probably a silly question but I'm curious. I check my tire pressure in the morning since they are coldest at that time. If they need air, I inflate them to, or very little over, the recommended 30 PSI. My question: If I move my car a bit (say 20 feet) and then check the tire pressure, does that make a difference? The tires should still be cold, right? |

Re: Checking tire pressure
It takes several miles for the tires to really 'heat up'. Just moving the car in the driveway should have NO effect.

Re: Checking tire pressure
As long as the tyre is not warm to the touch it will be fine or rather warmer than before being moved.

Re: Checking tire pressure
yeah it does make a difference..but not enough to be measured on a pressure gauge..
If your vehicle is equipped with an r14-r16 tires (along with 165,175)..the recommended pressure is 32psi..
